This is NOT the Britain where I used to live. Forty years ago, Brits were a friendly and quite tolerant people. I think most still are, but the powers-that-be have completely gone off the deep end. This is religious intolerance of the worst kind.
It use to be somewhat difficult for foreigners to gain resident status there and those who were allowed in were expected to conform to the societal norms exhibited by the majority of the people. Today, it seems that entry is granted to anyone who is likely to ignore the norms of that society and attempt to pervert the communities in which they have been allowed to live. The British government should be ashamed of its adoption of intolerant P.C. attitudes and persecution of its rightful citizens as a result. Followers of Islam, where is the tolerance you brag about? It doesn't exist, that's where.
